Godwin, my uncle, passed away on 22 September after a sudden heart attack. He was 26 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $600 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 2 October.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Godwin to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program.
Where the $600 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $250
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $260
• Transport of the deceased: $25
• Memorial gathering for the family: $65
Thanks for reading all this.

Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together.
Sending love. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Biratnagar
good luck, Ifeoma. Hope this works out for you.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Madurai.
